<p>Hello all:<br>
<br>
For several years I have been running the following in a Linux
server.<br>
<br>
Dovecot Version: 2.0.9</p>
<p><b>IMAP:</b><br>
Connection Security: SSL/TLS<br>
Port: 993<br>
Authentication Method: Normal Password<br>
<br>
<b>SMTP:</b><br>
Connection Security: STARTTLS<br>
Port: 587<br>
Authentication Method: Normal Password<br>
</p>
<p>The E-mail client is Thunderbird on Windows.<br>
</p>
<p>I am preparing a new server, with Dovecot 2.2.36 and would like
to know the currently recommended protocols. Should I stick to
what I have? I would prefer to start with the easiest
configuration possible, which I will revise later.</p>
<p>This is the command that I have been using to verify the server's
functionality:<br>
<br>
% openssl s_client -connect localhost:imaps</p>
<p>TIA</p>
<p><br>
